She became a god

Liu Qing's hands are long, and there is a thin layer of calluses on her fingers.

Seeing the spirit stone bag handed over by Liu Qing and the outstretched hand, Ye Qingzhou showed no intention of taking out the Ice Soul Sword.

Because, it seems like she just had an auditory hallucination.

Seeing her stunned expression, Liu Qing urged, "Xiao Zhou, where's the sword?"

"Not for sale."

These words were not spoken by Ye Qingzhou, but by someone else.

Ye Qingzhou turned around and saw the person who had come, and smiled slightly.

It turned out that she hadn't been hallucinating; she had actually heard Wen Xichun's voice.

Liu Qing looked at the unfamiliar female cultivator, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face. "I was discussing business with Xiao Zhou. Your sudden interruption was a bit much."

“Xiao Zhou? You have so many names!” Wen Xichun glanced at Ye Qingzhou, completely ignoring Liu Qing.

Ye Qingzhou sighed and said, "I won't sell this sword."

"Because of her?"

Liu Qing's eyes were calm, but Ye Qingzhou was certain that the other party was angry.

Put yourself in their shoes; if a sure thing slips away, no one would be happy.

So Ye Qingzhou said, "Next time we do business, I'll give you a 2% discount."

"Pfft!" Liu Qing laughed. "A 2% discount, I'll remember that."

After saying that, he left with Xue Suihan.

"How do you know him?"

"He provided me with information about the end of the year."

"Stay away from him from now on!"

Ye Qingzhou didn't understand, "Why?"

"He doesn't look like a good person."

"But... I'm not exactly a completely good person either."

"Comparatively speaking, you have done immeasurable good deeds."

Seeing that Ye Qingzhou still didn't take it seriously, Wen Xichun said solemnly, "I sensed a very terrifying aura about him."

It should be known that Wen Xichun has countless dead under his command, and he will continue to kill those who strive for perfection in their cultivation.

Such a person actually finds people at the same level as themselves terrifying.

This is really incredible.

So Ye Qingzhou asked, "Just how terrible is it?"

"Sometimes I feel that the other person's murderous aura is stronger than mine. And..."

"And what?"

Wen Xichun was full of doubts. "Zhouzhou, do you lose some of your natural instincts after you change your appearance?"

"what?"

"Can't you see that he's burdened with karma?"

Ye Qingzhou's eyes widened. No one knew better than herself whether her transformation technique had any side effects, and if so, what those side effects were.

As messengers of heaven, each red panda is born with a high sensitivity to merit and karma.

Ye Qingzhou should be able to sense whether Liu Qing carries any karmic burdens.

Moreover, "at the Jiangcheng Martial Arts Tournament for Marriage, he condensed a golden lotus of merit."

"The reason why my Golden Lotus of Merit was able to form is partly because it was a gift from Heaven when you had an epiphany in the Mirror of Enlightenment last time."

"But his Golden Lotus of Merit is the one that truly conforms to the process of establishing the Dao and becoming a saint."

Wen Xichun asked, puzzled, "What is the procedure for obtaining the Golden Lotus of Merit?"

Ye Qingzhou explained, "There are generally three ways to obtain the orthodox Golden Lotus of Merit."

"Firstly, by saving lives and doing many good deeds, one accumulates merit, which naturally leads to the formation of a golden lotus of merit."

"Secondly, one can establish the Way and become a saint. Those with great wisdom will have an epiphany, resonate with heaven and earth, touch the threshold of the Way, and be specially rewarded with a golden lotus of merit."

Thirdly…

"What is it?"

After a moment, Ye Qingzhou said, "It's better if you don't know."

"If Liu Qing is the third..."

"Absolutely impossible!"

Ye Qingzhou's tone was unusually firm.

What exactly is the third way to gather merit into a golden lotus, and why is Ye Qingzhou so reluctant to discuss it?

Despite Wen Xichun's focused perception, she could not hear a single word from Ye Qingzhou.

A huge doubt immediately settled in Wen Xichun's heart.

Ye Qingzhou, wanting to ease the tension, joked, "That sounds so unpleasant!"

"Hmph! Who knows, he might actually become a mistress someday!"

"Be careful what you say! In my opinion, Fellow Daoist Liu is a handsome and talented man, and he would never interfere in other people's relationships."

Wen Xichun suddenly fell silent, looked at Ye Qingzhou for a long time, and said, "I think he might become your mistress."

Even though she hadn't eaten, Ye Qingzhou was still choked by those words. She coughed for a long time before finally saying, "Absolutely impossible!"

"Liu Qing is not a mistress, and she would never be my mistress!"

"First, he thought I was a man."

"Secondly, he has no romantic feelings for me. Xue Suimu looks at me with more affection than he does."

"Third, although I'm universally loved and seem like a heartbreaker, I'm not. Because I have no intention of dating. As long as there's no romance, how can there be a third party?"

"But aren't you still engaged?"

These words struck Ye Qingzhou like a thunderbolt, leaving him completely stunned.

Do I have a fiancé? I don't know that!

[Could it be Miss Han? But I accepted the commission in Lu Mingze's name. Even if there's a score to settle, it should go to Yuantong, not me!]

[Could it be that fire phoenix? But I was tricked into participating by Ali and the others, and it didn't actually work out! I was only ten years old then!]

Besides, if there really were a marriage agreement, a charming and independent woman like me would definitely have my fiancé begging for my attention every day.

But none of the above are there!

In conclusion, I am a person of impeccable morals, beautiful inside and out, and possess radiant charm—a truly exceptional talent!

Therefore, Ye Qingzhou said with great confidence, "I absolutely do not have a fiancé, let alone a mistress!"
